Looking for shows to binge

I was looking for a teen series, with a grungy vibe like MTVs downtown or Metal family, but works if it doesn't. it should be a simple day to day show with no supernatural elements like powers or others. Movies can work too.

Is this attendance rate good?

So my school doesn't have Saturdays off, and actually only one Saturday off in a month. Me and my friends don't usually go on Saturdays, because till 6th grade it used to be just doing whatever you want in school, but after that, we started having proper classes and all. We just kinda got an habit to not go, and anyway not like we get anything from our teachers. I don't usually skip much besides Saturdays, my parents are strict but not that strict, they just tell me I am old enough to decide (they say the opposite on some occasions and are actually trying to trip me, I just know it) and that just makes me more confused. My mom is home alone when we go to school with our maid, and she keeps complaining whenever we skip, saying she is kicking us to school from next week. Me and friends aren't that level of good in academics neither are we that serious, but we still get higher results than almost all the students in our batch (maybe cus the other students don't really care and all). I prefer to study at home, and also I don't like to go to school that much, cus half the teachers time goes in yelling at the class, and anyway I can barely keep my eyes open and just daydream through most of it. Along with the Saturdays I have probably skipped around 12 days from April to Today. My school has a 75% attendance policy and I genuinely confused on weather to start going on Saturdays or not, also one of my friend group didn't come so I was mostly just peer pressured in it, but now I actually hate going to school on Saturdays, my other friends do come tho, so notes aren't any problem.

Edit - dang shit man, didn't know the US has this high compulsory attendance, I feel lucky atp.

Crazy Family Lore

Nah Cuz WTF, Apparently I am the great great grandchild of a local deity. Yaka Mirem or Yakami was the first 'crore pati' of mising community, and she was also a mobster. But who cares, she was a millionaire, in the 19th ,and she was a girboss.

She was kidnapped by tribals, outsmarted them, tricked the British. And whatever.

I don't know much about them, but turns out, from what I've heard, that my Grandfather was the bottom in the marriage. They were so rich that their children literally used to wear golden underwear (yeah, rich people are still like that), But during the time of my grandfather aka my Nana, who, by the way, was offered a job in London, which was a Big thing back in that time, but ofcourse there has to be something wrong with my family. All of the gold, all of the money got raided. Including golden statues, golden plates, golden clothes. Everything.

Now all we own is land worth half the town.

Man life is unfair.

I am so mad rn, I don't even know what the hell I am writing. I don't care if y'all believe it or not.

AITA for sticking my nose in her relationship?

So My cousin was dating my part time art tutor for around 2 years. They met through me during a class when my cousin was visiting. So she and her started talking and started going out. So me and a few cousins knew she was bi, but none of our parents knew. One day her mother called my mom while crying. She said something and my mom called my dad and they drove to her house. I didn't know what was going on so I called her younger brother. Who was also my cousin and also just a little older. He was almost whispering and told me that his sister straight told them about my tutor and now their dad was yelling at her. I went to their house and kinda just stood there, turns out almost all of my father's siblings were there. They were all saying that her father was a respected man and whatever bullshit. She was holding back tears but still stood firm with her eyes crossed. After her father yelled a little too loudly, her brother kinda lost it and just yelled back that "what's even wrong with you, did she do a crime?! What are you so angry about?!" (I always thought this guy was a bastard, but nah) And I nodded along. His father stopped for a second but started yelling again, louder this time. It went on for another hour or SMTH, but then he just said "do whatever you want, don't ask us from now on." And yeah that was over at that, we went home, I called my tutor, told her what happened, she was shocked cuz she had no idea about it. Then those two talked and she went to her home. She also got yelled at by my uncle. This kept going for a few months until her family finally accepted her. So everything was good.

Until a few weeks back.

Her and a few of my cousins' families went to a trip. There we had this guide who was around my cousin's age and those two got along pretty good. And he was kinda attractive too. So we kept teasing her.

I was sharing a room with her and another cousin in the resort we were staying. The other cousin had a boyfriend, whom she used to call in the balcony. While my cousin kept giggling with her girlfriend on the phone in the bed. She always used to shoo me off, so I just used to hang out with her brothers until she was done. One night around, around 1 am. I went back to our room and asked if she was done, she told me that yes but now she was talking to our guide and told me to come back a little later, I didn't know she had his number but didn't say anything.

During the third day of our trip, she and two of my cousins went out for drinks in the town along with the guide and his friends.

I was alone in my room when the two of them came back. They washed up and slipped into bed. At night I thought I heard my cousin sobbing, but I thought that she was just drunk.

The next day, we were going shopping but she said that she was having an headache. So we went, and when I came back I saw her crying again. I asked her what happened, she just told me that everything was fine. When my other cousin came I asked her the same, she just said it was nothing. The next day I asked the guide if he knew SMTH. I just expected him to brush it off like them, but he so casually said, "oh yeah, that night at the bar we kissed and only the next day I found out about her girlfriend. I was really shocked and told her about it. She said that she knew she was in the wrong but she really loved her girlfriend and doesn't want to ruin things more. She also told me to keep shut. I tried to tell her to talk it out with her but she only said that she will think about it.

When we got back, She acted normal and but obviously she was kinda tense. A few days later, her gf and I were talking outside her gate. (She was also my neighbour) She asked me if SMTH had happened. I first lied to her that everything was fine, but after a while, it just went out before I could stop. She didn't say anything and told me to go home. I listened to her. That night my cousin called me, she was crying and but didn't yell at me. She just told to me that her gf had come to her home and when both of them were in her room, she started crying and told her everything. She said that she trusted me and now her relationship was ruined because of it. Kissing the guy was an one time mistake.

I feel like such an asshole. Most of our cousins are on her side. I just want to know from an outside perspective if what I did was wrong.

Are they actually toxic or am I just victimizing myself?

Yeah, so my parents keep fighting like all the time, and it's not even for any important reason. My mom is a housewife and my dad is the only one with an income, so he always brings that up in an argument. I always noticed something growing up. My parents would always need someone to vent their anger at. I had live in nannies since I can remember. Most of them were female students. So they would do the housework and take care of me, and my family would pay for their college and stuff and help out their families. My parents would yell at them for whatever reasons. They always kept changing after a year or two, and it took a few months to replace them. My parents would always be in bad temper during that time. It's not like they were always angry, they treated me based on their moods. And I am not the best person either. I was so spoiled and rotten, that I still don't know how to properly tie my hair and shoelaces (9th grade btw). Our last helper was only around 6 years older than me and left while I was in 6th grade. Her family wanted her back and guess she agreed because she was getting treated like shit anyway. After that they just started taking out their anger on me cuz they couldn't take it out on my younger sister. Yeah so cuz of that I don't know why I just think that nobody likes me, nobody actually cares for me, everybody secretly hates me and I was always paranoid. And my father for some fucking reason was like mad cuz I didn't talk much and I wasn't like other kids or don't know what bullshit. He literally started yelling at me infront everyone at a gathering cuz I wasn't dancing around with my cousins, and still threatens me to send me to counselling or an asylum cuz I was always frowning (yes I am serious and he was serious)And my mother on the other hands was a narcissist who always wanted to point out my insecurities. I would be doing nothing and she would be like 'why do you look so ugly?' 'why are you so skinny? My friends were making fun of me' 'you should always listen to me or else in the future you will always regret it very much'. She said that people will think I am a slut cuz I posed with my tongue out in a picture.

I said a lot more than I wanted to and it is still the less of what it is like but I genuinely don't know if it is normal for an Indian family or are they actually weird.

My cousins just say that we should be grateful that our parents are nicer than some others out there.

EDIT:-

I forgot to mention that my parents lost my older sister before I was born. Maybe that's the reason they don't act the best?
